Even if they release players of NT on 5th October, we will reach Ashgabat on 7th morning I guess. As I wrote earlier, travel to Ashgabat is not straightforward. Hardly one Practice session they can manage if they recover from jet lag and acclimitise at Central Asian dry and windy weather. Then are they flying stright to Muscat or flying to India for 1 ISL game?
What will happen when India play Guam on 12th November. I bet Guam will be practicing at Bangalore Stadium while India NT players will be released barely 48 hours before. :P
If they are released then nothing like it. That would be a great success for the article. As of now, there is no such sign. Ideally the camp should have started tomorrow
Great work.... Somesh. You have expressed every bit of sentiment a Normal-Passionate & Real Football lover in this Country wanted to express. Thank you so so so much. For the next 3 months & don't know for how long "Let's (EXPLOIT) Football" and poison the game in India.
What? The issue was never about releasing players on 5th Oct. That ISL would have had to do anyway. The camp was slated to be held from 29th Sep. That is not being held. Please don't get fooled
AIFF follows the FIFA rules here..... releasing the players for the NT 4 days (including the match day) prior to the game. AIFF at least or at last is doing the bare minimum to show that it cares for the NT. But why then they used to stop I-League totally for International commitments ? At that time were they giving too much importance to the NT commitments or now IMG-R has allowed them to release the players just 4 days before the match ?
